Canada, its spread, and impact on bats. Mr. Segers also summarizes his recent publication of a report on other threats to bats taken from veterinary records etc. in Canada. Seger’s point was, WNS isn’t the only threat to bats. And since we cannot do much about WNS now, we must work to reduce other threats to bats in order to help protect bats from extinction or extirpation.

familiaris)) that threaten livestock or endangered species. These heavily regulated (and demonized products by critics) have been used in the United States for decades. Montana is one of the few states allows non-USDA-Wildlife Services personnel to use M-44s on their private property. If you are interested in M-44 use in Montana then you will be glad to know that Stephen M. Vantassel collated almost 15 years of data on the use of M-44s by private (i.e. non-USDA personnel). The title of the article is “M-44 Use by Non-USDA-Wildlife Services Applicators between 2006-2019 in Montana” published in the 29th Proceedings of the Vertebrate Pest Conference. You can get a copy of the article at https://escholarship.org/uc/item/789187w2. The article highlights some of the myths about M-44 use and how they don’t really apply to M-44 use in Montana.
